Conceptual design studies of the Modular Stellarator Reactor (MSR)

OSTI ID:6482386
A preliminary conceptual study has been made of the Modular Stellarator reactor (MSR) as a steady-state, ignited, DT-fueled, magnetic fusion reactor. The MSR concept combines the physics of classic stellarator confinement with an innovative, modular-coil design. Parametric tradeoff calculations are described, leading to the selection of an interim design point for a 4.8-GWT plant based on Alcator transport scalilng and an average beta value of 0.04 in an /L-SCRIPT/. 2 system with a plasma aspect ratio of 11.
